Helen Flanagan stripped down to her underwear as she opened up about losing confidence in her looks in a new Instagram video on Friday.
The Coronation Street star, 34, has become known for showing off her enviable physique in lingerie shoots over the years.
But as she got ready for a night at the theatre, Helen revealed she's lost confidence in her figure in recent months after noticing 'cellulite'.
Filming a 'get ready with me' for her fans, the stunner initially sported a pink set of pyjamas before stripping down to a sky blue lingerie set.
'My weight goes up and down,' she explained. 'It depends on my love life and how stressed I am.'

As she stunned in the skimpy lingerie, Helen then spoke about how she was pleased to have been asked to help edit the bra she was sporting.
'Even though sometimes you don't feel so confident or toned, just got for it,' the Corrie star added.
'Even though I've got cellulite and my body isn't as toned as it used to be, I just thought, "you know what Helen go for it, you only live once."'
Helen later showed off her final look for the evening, with the beauty letting her blonde locks down with a denim blue button-up dress ready for her night out with a friend.
The model's latest Instagram post comes days after she was pictured partying with Wayne Linker at the notorious O Beach Ibiza club.
Following a heavy night, Helen shared her hungover state with her followers saying: 'I am really hungover, I am like a lizard.
'I am not drinking for a long time. I know I will feel better tomorrow. I have the school run tomorrow.
'Oh my god. I literally got in at six in the morning'.

It came on the same week the 34-year-old model dramatically cut the asking price of her six bedroom luxury mansion on the outskirts of Bolton from £1.5million to £1,195,000.
Admitting she's 'really struggling financially', Helen had initially listed the property spanning more than 5,000 feet in May.
The mother-of-three had reportedly been left 'broke' following her split from ex Scott Sinclair, with Helen even claiming she barely had enough money to pay a £10 cab fare to get her son Charlie, three, to nursery.
Helen and Scott separated in 2022 after 13 years together, before she moved on with Robbie Talbot, 45, only to split last month after a year of dating.
On her failed romance with ex Scott, Helen revealed she was the one to call time on their relationship.
She said they 'were always quietly breaking up and then getting back together' until one day she called it quits for good.
Helen told The Sun: 'In the end, it was me who decided [to break up]. I'll always be sad it didn't work out, and we still have love for each other, but we're happier apart.'
Speaking to Charlotte Dawson on her Naughty Corner podcast, Helen said: 'I still love him very much, I care about him deeply, but we don't like each other.
'We don't like each other at all, we don't get on. I do know that Scott - he'd never admit it - cares about me too and he does love me.
'But I'm so done, I could never have another relationship again where we would always be bickering. I haven't got another argument in me.
'As women we try and do anything we can to make it work with the father of your children and I did. But I think for me if I was in a relationship with someone else it would have to be easy because I haven't got the energy in me again, I've done all that with the father of my kids.'
Helen went onto say co-parenting is 'hilarious' as she revealed the pair try and avoid each other so they don't 'argue' in front of their kids.
She continued: 'I've been a single mum for two years now. Co-parenting is hilarious, we were together for 13 years.
'The last time I saw him, I thought it was quite funny, I was taking the p*** out of him because he had a bucket hat on. I think he was trying not to laugh.
'He lives in Bath and I live in North Manchester so its about five hours and we meet in Birmingham to exchange things and the kids.
'He's throwing things in my boot and I just started taking the mickey out of his bucket hat to lighten the mood.
'We just try and not be in the same house together because the children are the priority and I want a good environment for them and I don't want them to see us arguing.'
